Scale
Sandwich Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough or thick sandwich bread
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 4 large eggs
- 4 slices bacon or breakfast sausage, cooked
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the scrambled eggs: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Pour the egg mixture into a nonstick skillet heated over medium heat and scramble gently until just set but still moist. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Butter one side of each bread slice evenly. On the non-buttered side of two slices, layer the scrambled eggs, cooked bacon or sausage, then sprinkle both shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Top with the remaining bread slices, ensuring the buttered sides face outward.
- Cook the sandwiches: Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Place the sandwiches on the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted thoroughly.
- Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve hot for a delicious breakfast treat.
Notes
- Try adding sautéed spinach, tomatoes, or avocado for extra flavor and nutrition.
- For a spicy twist, use pepper jack cheese or add a dash of hot sauce to the scrambled eggs.
- Substitute bacon with turkey sausage or plant-based alternatives for dietary preferences.
- Use gluten-free bread to accommodate gluten sensitivities.
